The female contenders for Mexico’s next presidential position
It was described as a ceremonial handing of the baton by the ruling party. However, it was denounced by the opposition as a "passing of the scepter." Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who is constitutionally prohibited from seeking reelection, made a public effort last month to convey his support for presidential contender Claudia Sheinbaum. Therefore, in a ceremony held outside a restaurant in Mexico City that is close to the National Palace, the home of the nation's executive branch, he gave his much-anticipated successor an actual baton. In expressing gratitude to Lopez Obrador, Sheinbaum, a 61-year-old former mayor of Mexico City and close political ally, struck all the right chords. Sheinbaum announced her acceptance of the leadership role and the socialist Morena party's presidential candidacy, stating that she would take on “the full responsibility of continuing.

The anti-mining demonstrations that have erupted around Panama over the past two weeks turned fatal on Tuesday, authorities say, after a man is said to have shot and murdered two protestors. An elderly man who appeared disheveled and frustrated with the protestors' attempts to force them to remove a barrier blocking the Pan American highway about 50 miles south of the capital was shown in a chilling video that bystanders on X, formerly known as Twitter, posted. He then pulled out a pistol and opened fire. Later, the accused shooter was alleged to have been taken into custody by Panama's National Police on the scene. Since Panamanians flocked the streets in significant numbers to protest against, the unique scene of violence has served as the most recent focal point for some of the greatest riots to rock the Central American nation.

Peru’s former President Alberto Fujimori released from prison
Images of the sick former leader outside a Lima prison and court paperwork indicate that Alberto Fujimori, the former president of Peru, was freed from prison on Wednesday, ahead of the conclusion of his term for approving the deployment of a death squad in his nation. As a humanitarian gesture, then-Peruvian President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski granted Fujimori a medical pardon in 2017, which was reinstated by the Constitutional Court of Peru on Tuesday. But a year later, the nation's Supreme Court revoked the pardon, and Fujimori was sent back to prison. Fujimori, a very controversial figure both before and after his hard-line reign from 1990 to 2000—he resigned in 2000 amid a bribery scandal—was the son of Japanese immigrants.

Venezuelans support annexing Guyana’s oil-rich territory.
The acquisition of an oil-rich area in neighboring Guyana was approved by a sizable majority of Venezuelan voters on Sunday. This is the most recent development in the long-running territorial dispute between the two nations, which has been stoked by the discovery of significant offshore energy resources. The region under question is the heavily forested Essequibo region, which is roughly the size of Florida and makes up over two thirds of Guyana's national territory. Voters were asked in Sunday's mostly symbolic referendum if they supported establishing a Venezuelan state in the Essequibo region, granting citizenship to its residents, and "incorporating that state into the map of Venezuelan territory." During a press conference revealing initial findings from the initial round of tabulated votes, the Venezuelan National Electoral Council stated that over 95% of voters selected "yes."
In the Bahamas, an American lady accused of plotting her husband’s murder was freed on bond.
An American woman named Lindsay Shiver was granted $100,000 bail by a Bahamian Supreme Court justice on Wednesday. Lindsay Shiver is accused of plotting her husband's murder in the Bahamas alongside two other parties. She will have to adhere to an 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew and be fitted with an electronic monitoring device. Audience members shouted questions at Shiver when she entered the courtroom wearing torn pants and a T-shirt, but it didn't seem like she answered them. Shiver is required to report three times a week to the Cable Beach Police Station located in Nassau. One of her bail requirements is that she not be within 100 feet of her husband. Shiver gave a gentle "OK" after Justice Cheryl Grant-Thompson of the Bahamas Supreme Court completed outlining the terms of her bail.
